COIR MARKET SEGMENTATION

By Type

Based on Type, the global market can be categorized into Brown Fiber, White Fiber.

• Brown Fiber: By type, the coir market consists of brown fiber obtained from fully mature coconuts. Because brown coir fiber is tough, long-lasting and high quality, it is mainly used to make brushes, mattresses, mats, ropes and upholstery. Because of its coarse texture, it is useful for construction and farming where hard, natural fibers matter.

• White Fiber: You get white coir fiber by processing immature green coconuts and it is finer, softer and more flexible than brown fiber. Most of its applications involve spinning it into yarn for mats, ropes, nets and things on ships. Since white fiber is so smooth, it works best for coir products that are light and gentle.          

By Application

Based on application, the global market can be categorized into Food, Agriculture, Upholstery, Fishing, Carpentry.

• Food: When used in food industries, coir pith and fiber are applied in making packaging and biodegradable containers. More and more, coir-based materials are replacing plastic packaging for organic and eco-friendly food brands, as they have less negative effect on the environment and can be composted.

• Agriculture: Many in agriculture use coir for bedding, conditioning soil and playing a mulching role. With coir pith or coco peat, soil is better able to retain water, allow air to flow through and take up nutrients, making it great for growing in these environments. It aids in farming that is environmentally friendly and raises crop yield.

• Upholstery: Because it is durable, feels stiff and lets air circulate, coir fiber is often chosen as the natural filling for mattresses, cushions and seats in upholstery. Coir gives good support and ventilation, so it’s a perfect substitution for foam cushions. Because it is durable and eco-friendly, its popularity in all kinds of furniture has grown.

• Fishing: Coir fiber is commonly used in the fishing industry to build strong ropes, nets and fishing lines. Broken down to its best points, jute is much kinder to the environment than the petrochemically sourced plastics we often rely on today. It’s environmentally friendly and durable for those engaged in fishing.

• Carpentry: In carpentry, coir is chosen as an natural fibre to use as brushes, polishers and as cushioning materials. Scrubbing rough wood with coarse coconut fibers is much easier and coir mats act as soft but safe cushions in woodwork. Using coir helps make carpentry more environmentally friendly.    

MARKET DYNAMICS

Market dynamics include driving and restraining factors, opportunities and challenges stating the market conditions.

Driving Factors

Rising Demand for Sustainable and Eco-Friendly Products to Boost the Market

One of the primary driving factors in Coir Market Growth is the increasing global demand for sustainable and eco-friendly products. When more people care about the environment, they and the industries they buy from are switching to natural substances that can be broken down by microbes. As a material formed from coconut husks, coir is renewable, can break down into the environment and is free from toxic chemicals—making it perfect for use in sectors such as packaging, home products and vehicle interiors. Strong government support for green products encourages people to use coir items throughout the world.

Expansion of Agricultural and Horticultural Applications to Expand the Market

The growing use of coir in farming and gardening is another main contributor. The waste product from coir fiber extraction, called coir pith, helps soil hold onto water, aerate and provide nutrients, making it better for or plant growing than normal soil. Many farmers and growers use peat for hydroponics, in greenhouses and to improve soil in places that care about sustainability. As agriculture increases its use of coir, improvements in how coir is processed and new products are made are emerging, giving the market room to evolve. Because of these factors, the coir market is steadily expanding and becoming more important worldwide.             

Restraining Factor

Inconsistent Quality and Supply of Raw Materials to Potentially Impede Market Growth

A major restraining factor in the coir market is the inconsistent quality and supply of raw materials. Because coir fiber comes from coconut husks, its supply can change with changes in coconut production which is affected by different seasons, weather and challenges on coconut farms in India and Sri Lanka. Because process inputs are not always consistent, industrial assembly lines hesitate to follow through and the quality of goods is also affected. Also, using traditional techniques and lots of manual work to produce coir reduces how quickly products can be created, leading to more expensive products and increased waiting periods. Since many production areas rely heavily on manual tasks, large-scale operations are not common. Additionally, coir products must deal with competition from cheaper synthetic fibers that give the same results and are particularly used in upholstery and packaging. Price sensitive buyers and users in the market can slow down its development. Additionally, not enough people are aware of coir and only limited technology exists for broadening its use in emerging markets.
